So maybe you have heard – but now you are hearing from me:I have decided to retire and will be leaving WellPoint no earlier than May 1 but no later than June 30. If that sounds like pseudo code, it is only fitting.I characterize this change as from WellPoint to Wellness.

March 2011 will be my 31 year anniversary. For someone planning to be in a corporate-like job for only 2 years that is a long run.

Who knew that the non-profit job at BCBS of CT would become, well, so corporate. Retirement for me will not be leisure. I have many community initiatives to partner with as a volunteer. So I will be working the same mission – to improve the lives of the people I serve and the health of my communities. I will continue to work with teams of generous and committed people like you (maybe including some of you) who try to make a difference every day.

Quotes that got my attention

Albert Einstein said "“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”

Response: Finding the crack to let the light come in may be harder than we can anticipate. Try Harder.

Sociologist Barbara Katz Rothman term is “incapacitating knowledge” for the technology enabled avalanche of non-stop information that often makes life seem more complicated and disturbing than it already is.

Response: Find Trusted Curators, Brain Train with exposure to art and consider the value of your own contributions to the avalanche.

Response: Sometime wins are hard to recognize until much time has past so lessen the anxiety with a realistic timeline, too.

Albert Einstein said "The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

Response: For me, everyday is finding the balance.

Albert Einstein said "Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Response: Silence, Judge within me.

George Elliot ( of whom I wrote my Senior High English paper to the dismay of the teacher expecting T.S. Elliot) It is never too late to be who you might have been.

Victor Frankl (College Sociology 100) What man actually needs is not a tensionless state, but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him. What he needs is not the discharge of tension at any cost, but the call of a potential meaning waiting to be fulfilled by him.
